After confiscation, some of Mr. Arnstein's confiscated objects were placed in crates which had been packed at the Jeu de Paume/Louvre in 1941, especially crate UNB 20. This could indicate that the collection was confiscated at some point in the first half of 1941. Also, Mr. Arnstein's apartment was in the same building as that of Mrs. Braun whose collection was plundered and taken to the Jeu de Paume in May 1941.
